These original films below of Cymatic experiments were made in the 1960's by Swiss scientist, Dr. Hans Jenny. Hans Jenny (16 August 1904, Basel - 23 June 1972, Dornach) was a physician and natural scientist who is considered the father of cymatics; the study of wave phenomena. In 1967, Jenny published the first volume of Cymatics: The Study of Wave Phenomena. The second volume came out in 1972, the year he died. This book was a written and photographic documentation of the effects of sound vibrations on fluids, powders, and liquid paste. He concluded, "This is not an unregulated chaos; it is a dynamic but ordered pattern."1680 : Royal society member, philosopher, architect and polymath Robert Hooke noticed nodal patterns forming as he ran a violin bow along the edge of a glass plate covered with a fine layer of flour. Hooke is better known for giving us his law of elasticity [Hooke's Law] than for his interests in cymatics. It was when Ernst Chladni repeated Hookes' experiments, publishing his findings in the book "Discoveries in the Theory of Sound" [1787] that Cymatics began to reach a wider audience. Now it is catching on like a wave. A sine wave . . . or a "bubble"?Dr. Hans Jenny is a little dry in his presentation here but it was then for science and information, not for hollywood, so we can allow this ignorance of pretty packaging here just long enough to see what he brought to the forefront of sciences of matter, consciousness faculties and cognitive potentials.

And now, over forty years later we are doing this below, but not much more with it. Why?

"As a man who has devoted his whole life to the most clear headed science, to the study of matter, I can tell you as a result of my research about atoms this much: There is no matter as such. All matter originates and exists only by virtue of a force which brings the particle of an atom to vibration and holds this most minute solar system of the atom together."Max Planck - One of the founders of "quantum theory".
